With country house sales, he knew a couple of local dealers who would buy for their retail stock. He would always bid against them as he knew there was a margin left if they were bidding. The house is still furnished with antique furniture bargains bought in the '50's and early '60's.

This looks nice. https://www.prestigecarsscarborough....M3A8_DVyyGt_PQ
Very, very, period correct and looks in good overall condition. The four missing mudflaps is worrying - how much filler is there in those arches and lower regions? The whitewall tyres detract and the scruffy hinges suggest there is rust underneath. No under bonnet photos, but apart from that it does look a good usable example.

That one has been on Car &Classic for probably a few months now, and from your observations it might be a clue as to why it’s sticking on the forecourt. Cheers Steve |

That under bonnet looks genuine and unmolested - commensurate with the rest of the car.

Just to update, the very expensive 245 (circa £13k) that was showing as deposit taken for weeks has suddenly disappeared from Car & Classic and the dealers website stocklist.
Unfortunately whilst checking, I stumbled across this...... https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1732386 I know, I know......... but its still a VWW, and has pretty much an original interior with lots and lots of period rust in the shell, although I am pretty certain I've owned and driven some old sheds with more holes in the floor. New wood set is only £850............ Cheers Steve Last edited by Steve 940; Jul 2nd, 2024 at 15:03. |
